This year’s Nail Those Profits cruise is off to a great start! Look for some upcoming blogs that will give a little more detail and information on the classes, as well as one letting you know where the cruise is heading next year! I got some hints and have to tell you I can hardly wait to share!
You didn’t need to bring much with you in order to participate. The Profiles girls offered an amazing pre-cruise option to purchase sample sizes of products you could use. This was a great way to be able to do liquid-and-powder hands on without lugging a bunch of things from the salon. Then Gina Sylvestro of Akzentz supplied some gel samples for nail day and Kellie the Crystal Ninja hooked everyone up with some Swarovski and a Crystal Katana so you could practice application as well as use them for the cruise competition at the end of the week.

Thank you to all the following companies and their thoughtful gifts:
